A foggy ferry ride to Deer Island with the Banks/Myers/Mansvelt clan. #explorenb #discovernb #willowbrier (at On The Deer Island Ferry)

Did a little gardening with my two sidekicks today. Hopefully it’s not too early to plant these. I’m a gardening newbie, but I consulted the farmers almanac, and it seemed to say it should be okay. 🤞 (at Saint John, New Brunswick)

Pre work hike with all my girls! (Nova and Katie are behind the camera ) #explorenb 📸// @ktlynnmansvelt (at Saint John, New Brunswick)

It was a bit chilly during my run this morning. #winteriscoming #trailrunning #explorenb (at Saint John, New Brunswick)

Both Katie and I are feeling a bit under the weather, so no running today. We did manage to cough and wheeze our way around Lily Lake so Nova could get some exercise and Willow could have a snooze. (at Fisher Lake, Rockwood Park)

I’m a lucky man! I get to hang out with these three beautiful girls everyday. 👶👩‍💼🐕 (at Saint John, New Brunswick)

Willow was seven months old as of yesterday! It’s crazy how the time flies away. Pretty soon I’ll be holding on for dear life as I teach her to drive 😉 (at Saint John, New Brunswick)

I have been trying to get back into a normal running routine after the hectic schedule of the summer. Nova enjoyed a few quick dips along our run. I love running this time of year. The temperature is just right and the scenery is beautiful 👌. #running #explorenb #mec #dogsofinstagram (at Saint John, New Brunswick)

A girl and her dog 🐕. (at Georgetown, Prince Edward Island)

Smoothie bowls for breakfast. After the last few days of work I'm going to "meditate and eat some flax seed" as my coworker Ashley suggested 😜 (at Saint John, New Brunswick)

I watched the first episode of "The Mist" on Netflix yesterday. In the show, as the thick wall of fog rolled into the town, it reminded me of Saint John on a foggy day. This was a photo from 2016 of Nova and I hanging out at Bayshore Beach. (There is a beach somewhere behind all the fog that we are staring at 😜) (at Saint John, New Brunswick)

Those red splotches are real. We call them her "angry marks". Let's just say sleeping isn't going well. #willowbrier #babiesofinstagram (at St John, New Brunswick)

Willow enjoyed getting to spend some quality time with Grandma and Opa last weekend while we camped at Caribou/Munroes Island Provincial Park. (at Caribou Provincial Park)

Quick stop at @receivercoffee to end our PEI vacation with the Myers/Banks/Mansvelt clan. 📸// @ktlynnmansvelt (at Receiver Coffee Co.)

Old photo of my dad camping when he was younger. I'm thankful that he shared his love of the outdoors with my brothers and I as we grew up. Shoutout to my mom for putting up with the four of us and trying to keep us from getting eaten by bears! Hopefully Katie and I will be able to pass this love on to Willow as well. I foresee many nights sleeping under the stars in our future 🛶🏕

Another evening family hike at the Nature Park. So thankful that I get to spend my life with this woman. 🤘#aisforadventure #discoversaintjohn #explorenb (at Irving Nature Park)
